Photo supply store. I was in my last semester of college. He started working at the store where I got all my stuff for my photo classes. He claims I said something snarky to him about the book he was reading behind the counter...all I remember is the way he looked at me. Not lecherous or even flirtatious, just this wide-eyed stare.
I had a friend who worked at the store, and next time I saw her, I asked her if the new guy was...a little slow. She said no, so I figured this staring thing was significant.
Through the whole semester, every time I went back to the store he would give me that big-eyed look. He had the sweetest eyes. The rest of him wasn't bad either. I started planning my trips to the store around when I thought he might be working. One night I was going through my receipts from school, and noticed all the slips from the photo store were marked down...10%...15%...25%. On the last day of class I went back and asked him out for coffee. We've been like peanutbutter and jelly for 4.5 years now.
It was so easy and natural, I'm really stumped about advice to give people looking for love. I think you have to just know what you're looking for and keep your eyes open.

I met J at a techno nightclub...I recognized him from high school and raves and went over to hit on him. (I NEVER hit on men. He was super cute) We are still together 7 years later.
